After browsing through its 2200+ pages of documentation, I have some very basic understanding of NeoTicker.

It appears datafeed is extra - it can feed off eSignal, QChart, MB, IB.
I am only interested in its functionality of doing real time scaning on a basket of names. Has anyone in the forum here been doing that? Can we get any sense of how robust it is? How resource intensive? Will it be feasible to run it and say eSignal on the same machine? of what "safe/optimal" h/w configuration? Particular if scanning is done over multiple time frames for a single name (which to my understanding is doable via one's own code - correct me if I misunderstood here.)?

It'd be greatly appreciated if someone could give me some feedback on these questions. Thank you.

Saw your post on Neo Ticker. I just got mine and I noticed you and I are the same age. I guess "old dogs" need new tricks. I guess I will start iwth the formula's and then move onto C#. Might as well learn that since I have a software start up where I am on the BOD and have a bunch of software guys and gals programming in that language. At least I will have a place to ask questions.

When you use MB as the brokerage the data comes from MB, including the latest intraday data.

When you test a trading system, you can specify the fill mechanism to Bid Limited Worst Case then NeoTicker will know that the data is generated from bid stream, and then use the slippage setting to adjust the fill price when ask price is needed.
